The time was October 8, 1943; the location was the Omsk region in southern Soviet Russia. The cause of the incident: a Chinese Golden Eagle encountered two German Stormbirds. The German pilots took it for granted that they encountered the Soviet Air Force, and took the initiative to attack; Result: Chinese pilots fired back and shot down a Stormbird,
Stormbird is the nickname of the German-made "Messerschmitt-262A2" jet fighter. Compared with the same type of jet fighter in that time and space, the Stormbird technology in this time and space is quite mature, which is why the German Air Force has been able to The main reason for controlling Soviet battlefield air supremacy,
As soon as this incident was exposed, it triggered a strong reaction in the world of the Allied Powers and the Entente Powers. As for the Allied Powers, the Soviet Russians, the Americans, and the British all breathed a sigh of relief, and their hanging hearts finally fell back into their stomachs. The Soviet Russia It is normal for people to react like this, because they have paid too much for this day. As for Americans and British people reacting this way, it is related to the close relationship between China and Germany, which has always worried them. There was ambiguity between China and Germany, and they even joined hands at the last moment. Now, since the two countries have officially started war, they naturally no longer worry about this issue. As for the Allied Powers, the Germans' reaction deviated a bit from the leaders of the Allied Powers. As expected, Hitler was naturally furious, scolding the Chinese for being ungrateful, and clamoring to retaliate against China tenfold. However, apart from him and his gang of buddies, there were other voices among the German people and the army. On the grounds of the friendship that once existed between China and Germany, they believe that the accident was caused by a German pilot and the responsibility lies with Germany. Therefore, if possible, it should be resolved through diplomatic channels instead of simply resorting to military retaliation. The Germans There are actually two attitudes towards this incident. This can be regarded as a reward for Ouyang Yun's long-term friendship with some high-level people in the German army. However, in the eyes of the Japanese, this is great news. You know, Konoe Fumimaro He was trying every possible means to invite the German army to join the Chinese battlefield. At this time, military friction occurred between China and Germany and people died. Doesn't this mean that he indirectly helped him a lot?
The German official side reacted harshly, which aroused the concerns of some senior officials in China. Just as the financial problem was solved, the arrears of military pay were paid, and the government's credibility was maintained, Chen Cheng proposed to increase troops in the Far East and Xinjiang , to prepare for a rainy day in case the German army really advances eastward,
"It seems that we are going to tighten our belts and live a hard life." At the subsequent high-level meeting, Chen Cheng said after stating his opinions,
If China goes to war with Germany and Japan at the same time, the army will be barely enough, but military expenditure will inevitably become a problem. However, because this is the implementation of the "Sino-Soviet Chongqing Agreement", the Chinese government must pay the price for taking back the Far East, and it cannot treat Britain and the United States the same way. If the Soviet Union is still allowed to bear military expenditures, then given the current situation of the government, it really has to tighten its belt to get by.
As soon as Chen Cheng said these words, they resonated with other participants, and pessimism immediately spread throughout the venue.
"The key is that the supply route is too long, which causes the cost to rise sharply. However, the air force cannot do without fuel." After Zhou Zhi Judo said this, he glanced at Tielin Fei, who was sitting on his left, and saw that he looked like an old man. He looked stunned, then leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Tie, you're not in a hurry."
Tie Linfei glanced at him, then mouthed to Ouyang Yunnu, and said: "The commander-in-chief never fights an uncertain battle. With him here, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Zhou Zhirou was stunned and looked at Ouyang Yun, seeing that his face was calm. Then he looked at Tie Linfei, who also calmed down.
As usual, Ouyang Yun spoke only after everyone else had expressed their opinions. As soon as he spoke, everyone immediately felt reassured. He said: "The difficulties you mentioned all exist objectively. However, at this stage, Will we definitely have a large-scale exchange of fire with the German army?" After taking a puff of cigarette, he continued: "Don't forget, it is a cold winter in the northeastern part of Soviet Russia, and the German army once suffered a big loss in terms of climate, so even if If the German army really wants to retaliate against me, it will have to wait at least until the spring of next year, and then consider that Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and other Soviet Union countries have not yet been occupied by the German army, that is, the German army will abandon the Far East front in the coming year and instead go to Central Asia in order to attack. We, I think it must be summer, we still have half a year, isn't it enough for us to completely defeat the little devil?"
No one said anything. Japan will be solved in half a year. Except for Ouyang Yun, no one here dared to say such nonsense.
No one spoke, Ouyang Yun didn't speak either, he just smoked.
Finally, Feng Yuxiang lost his composure and said: "It won't be that easy to defeat Japan in half a year. If nothing else, the Japanese navy's combat power is still intact, and we do not have the ability to defeat it quickly."
Mu Jiandie then continued: "Sir, I also think you are too optimistic. The Japanese are now frantically producing various types of special attack tactical weapons. I don't think the Japanese can make a comeback with this, but it will definitely make me The military casualties have increased greatly, and our navy has a weak foundation. As a result, the Pacific War alone is expected to be delayed for a long time, and if we cannot deal with the Japanese navy, then the risk of us directly attacking its homeland will be too great."
The Japanese have re-introduced cruel tactics such as special attack tactics. This information has been sent back by members of the former "Assassination Team". Most of the attendees, except Song Ziwen and other non-military fields, know that although the Japanese army's special attack tactics have been proven to be defeatable, However, at the beginning of the launch, it really caused heavy damage to the Xuebing Army's aviation unit, so everyone was deeply impressed by it. After Mu Jiandie finished speaking, many people couldn't help but frowned. Then, they looked at Ouyang Yun, worried. I couldn't help but secretly look forward to it,
After getting along with each other for this period of time, everyone had a certain understanding of Ouyang Yun. They knew that he never acted without targets, and they all thought that he had already figured out a solution.
However, Ouyang Yun disappointed them this time. He did not immediately stop everyone's thoughts, but his answer was really unsatisfactory.
"Large-scale special attacks are indeed terrifying, but if the little devil wants to defeat us with this, I have to say, it is wishful thinking. Well, the little devil is no longer a grasshopper after autumn. Let's get back to the subject. In a short time, we will The probability of large-scale battles with the German army is very low, but confrontations between air forces will definitely be frequent. Therefore, I think the size of the aviation force to aid the Soviet Union should be increased. Lin Fei, Mr. Zhou, you are the masters of the air force. People, how many more fighter planes should be added to ensure that our air force can gain a foothold in the Far East and at the same time, supplies can meet the needs. You are responsible for this matter. I hope you will come up with a specific plan within this week, adjourned the meeting."
